Family Weekend

So we went up to Boston for MIT Family Weekend and had a great time. We listened to some amazing speakers, had a wonderful dinner at our son's fraternity (cooked by the brothers along with the setting off the of fire alarm - just like home!), and got to see my first college football game. Here's the stadium and bleachers,





that handsome guy directly across the field with the ball is Anthony working the game
,





here is the entire marching band,






and here they are running off the field after playing the theme song from the movie, Jaws.
It was a kick!




And they won the game, too! The last photo is what I'll be doing this week.....

What I've been doing....

So this is what I've been doing! They are for the next session of classes up at the Happy Quilter. The first is a sampler, with applique, pper piecing, strip piecing, even a mitered corner, so that when you are done, you've learned a lot of skills. The second is an Angle Play quilt (I've been wanting to have fun with this for a long time) and here is just a peek at what I am doing. The top is actually almost complete, and I'll put up a photo soon. I'm also spending time getting to know the new 830 machine that we just got in up at the shop. I'm amazed!!! It's soooooo much fun to play with!

Sorry!!

I'm sorry that I haven't posted for awhile, but the For Sale sign just went on the front lawn, so I'm sure you can figure out what weve been doing around here!! Hoping to get back to the red and white sampler that I'm doing for an upcoming class schedule......I'll shoot a few photos soon.

The Next Adventure

Getting ready to put our house on the market. I love how it looks this time of year.








Looking across the the back yard.










The stone path and gardens to the side entrance. I call this my secret garden.
